摘要
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare malignant tumor of subcutaneous tissue characterized by slow infiltrative growth. The tumor occurs in patients of all ages, with the highest frequency occurring between the second and the fifth decades of age. Genetically, DFSP is characterized by a reciprocal translocation t(17;22)(q22;q13), or more often, as a supernumerary ring chromosome involving chromosomes 17 and 22. Standard treatment of a localized tumor is surgical excision with wide margins. In the present study, a case report of a 43-year-old woman with a growing tumor in the left breast is discussed. The patient underwent breast-conserving surgery. Histological and cytogenetic examinations of the tumor resulted in a diagnosis of DFSP. The clinical and morphological characteristics of the tumor, in addition to the treatment options, were also evaluated.
